Project description:This is a study to characterize gene expression profiles in stored Russet Burbank potato tubers. Tubers were harvested from commercial fields in the central sands region of Wisconsin in the fall of 2006. The tubers were put into storage at 55 degrees F for preconditioning and wound healing. Shortly after the temperature of the storage bin began to decrease, uniform, healthy tubers were selected for use in this microarray analysis. Tubers were at 53.6 degrees F at this time, and pieces of starch-storing tissue were collected for use as the reference sample. Other tubers were moved to temperature-controlled lockers and these were cooled gradually to either 48 or 40 degrees F following industry standard procedures. The expectation was that tubers held at 48 degrees would not have a significant accumulation of glucose and fructose, but that tubers cooled to 40 degrees would undergo low temperature sweetening and accumulate glucose and fructose to a degree that is unsuitable for processing. Three weeks later, when the locker temperatures were 48 degrees F and 41.5 degrees F, tissue samples were collected for RNA analysis. After another three weeks, samples were collected from tubers at 48 degrees F and 40 degrees F. At that time some tubers were moved from the 48 degree locker to the 40 degree locker in order to see if gene expression changes observed as a result of gradual cooling are similar to those that occur following a sudden decrease in temperature. Three weeks later, samples were collected from tubers held at 48 degrees F, tubers held at 40 degrees F, and from the tubers that were moved from 48 to 40 degrees F. At this time another set of tubers was transferred from 48 degrees to 40 degrees. Three weeks later the last samples were harvested from tubers held at 48 degrees F, from tubers held at 48 degrees F and from tubers that were transferred three weeks prior from 48 to 40 degrees. RNA was isolated from tissue extracted from three tubers. Keywords: Reference design
Project description:To obtain a global view of the response of S. flexneri at the expression level induced by temperature up-shift, we compared the expression profiles of log-phase and stationary-phase cells grown at 30 degrees and 37 degrees Celsius.
Project description:Salvia is an important genus from the Lamiaceae with approximately 1000 species distributed globally. Several Salvia species are commercially important because of their medicinal and culinary properties. We report the construction of the first fingerprinting array for Salvia species enriched with polymorphic and divergent DNA sequences and demonstrate the potential of this array for fingerprinting several economically important members of this genus. In order to generate the Salvia Subtracted Diversity Array (SDA), a Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) was performed between a pool of ten Salvia species and a pool of non-angiosperm and angiosperms (excluding the Lamiaceae) to selectively isolate Salvia-specific sequences. A total of 285 subtracted genomic DNA (gDNA) fragments were amplified and arrayed. DNA fingerprints were obtained for fifteen Salvia genotypes including three that were not part of the original subtraction pool. Hierarchical cluster analysis indicated that the Salvia-specific SDA was capable of differentiating closely related species of S. officinalis and S. miltiorrhiza and was also able to reveal genetic relationships consistent with geographical origins. Species-specific features were also found for S. elegans, S. officinalis, S. sclarea, S. przewalskii and S. runcinata.

Project description:In this data set we investigate dynamic differences in the transcriptome between 37 and 40 degrees C after treatment with TNFalpha. In the continuous temperature experiments, cells were grown at 37 degrees C and were then left at 37 degrees C, or transferred to 40 degrees C, for 1hour after which they (at time 0) were stimulated with 10 ng/ml of TNFα . Measurements were taken at 0, 30, 130, 230 and 430 minutes. In the 'switch' experiment, cells were grown the same way but the temperature of the incubator was turned up to 40 degrees C after 200 minutes. Measurements were taken at 230 and 430 minutes.

Project description:mzML and mzIdentML are commonly used, powerful tools for representing mass spectrometry data and derived identification information. These formats are complex, requiring non-trivial logic to translate data into the appropriate representation. Most published implementations are tightly coupled to data structures. The most complete implementations are written in compiled languages that cannot expose the complete flexibility of the implementation to external programs or bindings. To our knowledge, there are no complete implementations for mzML or mzIdentML available to scripting languages like Python or R. We present psims, a library written in Python for writing mzML and mzIdentML. The library allows writing either XML format using built-in Python data structures. It includes a controlled vocabulary resolution system to simplify the encoding process and an identity tracking system to manage entity relationships. The source code is available at https://github.com/mobiusklein/psims, and through the Python Package Index as psims, licensed under the Apache 2 common license.
Project description:To identify salvia chinensia benths induced transcriptional changes in triple negative breast cancer cell, RNA-sequencing of MDA-MB-231 cells after salvia chinensia benths treantmnent was performed. Differential gene expression analysis resulted in 7582 differentially expressed genes.
